As a general design principle, strings that we aren't going to modify
should usually be const. When compiling with -Wwrite-strings, quoted
string constants are of type "const char *", causing compiler warnings
when they are assigned to char * variables.
Unfortunately, we need to add casts in a few places:
* _dbus_list_append(), _dbus_test_oom_handling() and similar generic
"user-data" APIs take a void *, not a const void *, so we have
to cast
* For historical reasons the execve() family of functions take a
(char * const *), i.e. a constant pointer to an array of mutable
strings, so again we have to cast
* _dbus_spawn_async_with_babysitter similarly takes a char **,
although we can make it a little more const-correct by making it
take (char * const *) like execve() does
This also incorporates a subsequent patch by Thomas Zimmermann to
put various string constants in static storage, which is a little
more efficient.

They used to be needed, but are not needed any more, and we were
never completely consistent about including them in any case.

These source files are specific to the embedded tests and make no sense
otherwise.
Also remove a comment in the CMake build system about fixing the
build of the activation helper on Windows: the activation helper
is Unix-specific and always will be, since it relies on Unix setuid
to function.

This makes them semi-command-line-compatible with a way we can
invoke the GLib-based tests to get more useful debug logs.
These tests still do not actually produce TAP output yet; I tried
implementing that, but it requires changing a lot of noise on stdout
to come out of stderr, and there was something weird going on with
subprocesses restarting the test numbering which will need further
investigation before making that change.

Add back the test-system.c file - not sure now this got ignored in the
diff. I blame git.
